I’m a southern girl. I love greasy fried food, especially fried chicken. Since I lost it over some delish healthy chinese food (my orange chicken surprise), I had to give healthy fried chicken a try. The first trick to our alternative fried chicken is in the dredging batter. Instead of using eggs and milk, it uses dijon mustard and Parmesan cheese. Plus, it allows you a little butter, which makes my day!
